Chapter 1206.2: True and False

----

Three hours later, in the half-closed basement of the Iron Hand residence.

This basement was originally used for storing fruits and vegetables, but due to its good sound insulation properties, the former Iron Hand turned it into a torture chamber.

For a position like Iron Hand, torture was common, so there were a large number of necessary tools located in this basement, and some of them Su Xiao had never seen before.

Elduo was tied to an X-shaped iron frame. Her head was lowered, and she seemed to still be unconscious, but she had actually woken up ten minutes ago.

Su Xiao, on the other hand, was sitting on a wooden chair directly opposite Elduo. He was holding a tablet in his hand and playing something.

— I know you've come to your senses, " Su Xiao suddenly said, causing Elduo's eyelids to flutter. Su Xiao's hand paused over the clipboard. This phrase was actually repeated by them every hour or so, which created quite a bit of psychological pressure on these undead creatures.

Su Xiao rarely resorted to torture. He preferred to destroy the enemy's spiritual defenses and then lure the necessary information out of them, because, as practice has shown, this method allowed obtaining more accurate information.

Blindly inflicting physical pain would only make the enemy lose heart in the end, and they would say anything to stop the torture, but they couldn't really count on the accuracy of such information..

— The old man will come to rescue you soon. I have left a large number of footprints, so he will definitely be able to come here, " Su Xiao said as he continued playing on the tablet. He didn't seem to have any intention of torturing Elduo at all. As for the old man he mentioned, that was just his personal guess.

Given Elduo's lack of real combat experience, would anyone send her alone to the human capital? Of course not. In addition, she was an excellent sprout that was very strong and young, and she might well be able to complete other important tasks in the future.

Since killing a king was a very important matter, the undead would definitely send their best warriors to do it. Elduo was only one of those who would have to cover their tracks, and she shouldn't have been directly involved in killing the king.

— Elduo gritted her teeth, revealing her white flat teeth and four fangs.

— If it wasn't for you, this old man would never have come to me, thank you.

— Shameless man! Elduo growled in her own language.

Su Xiao's expression didn't change at all, and he quickly tapped the tablet screen with his fingers.

Now he wasn't playing a game, but was recording something.

— Shameless? Then I'll tell you something even more 'shameless'. If this old man really comes to save you, then he will end up dying, " Su Xiao said in a very calm tone.

— Elduo wanted to shout something, but then she realized something and immediately shut up.

Su Xiao wrote down a few keywords on the tablet: "Master, an undead male, 40 to 60 years old, extremely strong and good with daggers or short knives».

— Elduo, I haven't met your master in a long time. He's really very strong, but I've prepared a big gift for him this time.

Hearing" Elduo " from Su Xiao's mouth, the girl's mouth slightly opened and her pupils narrowed a little. Other than her gray-white skin, her appearance didn't look much different from a human girl, unless you took into account her height of 1.4 meters and sharp ears.

— You, you - " Elduo panicked.

She was sure that she had never met an Iron Hand in her life.

*Boom!*

There was a loud bang from above, followed by noise and muffled screams.

In the Iron Hand residence, Amu received the signal and began to beat the ground with his fists, while the royal Guards stood around him, shouting and attacking the invisible opponent with incredible fury.

Twenty minutes later, two bloodied guards entered the basement.

— Master, he escaped but was seriously injured, our group is catching up with him right now, " and with that, they immediately left the basement.

Su Xiao sat on the chair from beginning to end. This girl had a very strong willpower. One couldn't rely solely on her language to get information from such a person.

It was also possible to get the necessary information with the help of small hints.

— The old man has become even stronger, he was actually able to break out of my trap ... " Su Xiao muttered, while Elduo heaved a sigh of relief.

Right now, she was baffled by the fact that Iron Hand knew her name from somewhere, and it actually really shocked her, because in the entire kingdom capital, there were only three people who knew her.

— But he's going to die anyway. This time, ten Saint Warriors of my level are chasing after him, after all, our opponent is the Tributary executioner, " Su Xiao said as he glared at Elduo. Intelligence was part of strength. Previously, he had collected almost all the information available to people about the strongest creatures of the undead race. In total, they had three males between the ages of 40 and 60 who used daggers. Two of them had sufficient strength, while the third one wasn't that strong and most likely wouldn't be able to nurture a disciple like Elduo.

Elduo opened and closed her mouth. She had no idea what she could say, but now she was sure that there was a traitor among them.

Little did she know that saying the word "master" to her had allowed Su Xiao to obtain some very important information.

— See you next time." Perhaps I can bring your master's head here, " Su Xiao said as he got up from his chair and left the basement.

From the beginning to the end, he didn't ask Elduo a single question.

The time has not yet come.

Judging from the current situation, the second side mission wasn't far off. Was this girl's master, Dannik, behind all this? It wasn't impossible, on the contrary, it was very likely.

Of course, reasoning wasn't Su Xiao's strong suit. The most effective and fastest way is to kidnap the enemy to get the necessary information. This task made Su Xiao feel a headache, but now it was much easier.

Once he can untie Elduo's mouth, the task will be completed.

Moreover, he did leave traces for Elduo's comrades, these were not simple words. Even if his opponent was very strong, Su Xiao wasn't afraid of him at all.

He could already activate " Demon Hunt Time».

It was troublesome to chase the enemies all over the capital, so after catching one of them, Su Xiao decided to lure them all out and kill them one big bunch at a time.
